Luo Zixi left the onlookers behind and hurriedly returned to the Bai family's old residence with the large package.
I didn't expect Bai Jingyan to deliver something so quickly.
She opened the package and sure enough, she saw a bunch of food, drinks and daily necessities, clothes for the children, and even clothes prepared for Luo Zixi.
I didn't expect Bai Jingyan to be so thoughtful.
Since he bought it, might as well wear it. After all, many of the clothes in Luo Zixi's villa are not suitable for this era.
It must be said that Bai Jingyan has a pretty good sense of aesthetics; the colors and styles of his clothes are understated yet elegant.
When Luo Zixi wore it, she immediately exuded a dignified, elegant, and high-class aura.
In fact, Luo Zixi is beautiful and looks good in any clothes. Moreover, she can pull off various styles and temperaments of clothing.
After all, she used to frequently change identities, so she knew very well how to best present a particular outfit.
Of course, besides clothes, there were also some receipts, some delicious food, and some useful items.
Luo Zixi even saw various rare tickets such as industrial tickets and bicycle tickets, which she collected without hesitation.
This was clearly a benefit given by Bai Jingyan, as she happened to want to buy a bicycle for transportation.
However, now is not the time to bring it out; it would be too flashy.
She did have a watch, after all, she needed to tell time. Besides, quite a few of the educated youth were well-off, and several of them wore watches.
But no one uses the bicycle anymore. There's only one bicycle in the entire Crescent Moon Mountain, and everyone cherishes it. They only ride it when the village secretary or brigade leader goes to town for a meeting.
After Luo Zixi's plan is implemented and everyone knows she can make money, then she can bring out the bicycle.
After taking stock of the supplies, Luo Zixi finally read the letter Bai Jingyan had written to her:
"Comrade Luo Zixi, it's like seeing you in person as we part ways. A month has passed since our hasty farewell..."
Bai Jingyan's letter had several implications. First, he hadn't found a suitable person to help the Bai family's orphans. Even if he sent things to the two children, they would probably be intercepted, so he hadn't taken action to help them before.
Now that he has Luo Zixi, he is very grateful for the help of his revolutionary comrades.
Secondly, there must be something wrong with the Bai family's old house. He doesn't believe in any supernatural theories; it must be the work of someone with ulterior motives. He told Luo Zixi to be extra careful and pay attention to the people around her.
He had lived in the Bai family's old house before, and since no one in the Bai family died directly in the old house back then, it was impossible for anything strange to happen there.
Third, it subtly expressed his feelings of longing.
Luo Zixi ignored the first and third points and focused on the second point.
After all, this concerns my own vital interests, so I have to study it carefully.
She already knew everything about the Bai family's old mansion without Bai Jingyan needing to remind her.
However, she had been living here for a while and nothing had happened, which made Luo Zixi wonder if those people had just scared her for nothing.
Zhang Qianwen, too, was probably scared half to death because she couldn't see anything in the dark.
Luo Zixi lives a carefree life here. She is upright and honest, so where would any strangeness come from?
Even if something seemed strange, no one dared to approach her.
That leaves only one possibility: someone doesn't want anyone to linger at the Bai family's old residence.
It's likely that they didn't dare to make any rash moves because they saw Luo Zixi's amazing fighting power.
Thinking of this, Luo Zixi narrowed her eyes. She wanted to see who had the audacity to set their sights on her.
She now lives in the Bai family's old house, so it's her territory, and she's in charge of it!
However, she accepted Bai Jingyan's suggestion to strengthen the defenses of the old house.
The previous traps were all relatively simple; it seems we need to set up some more complex and sophisticated ones now.
Of course, taking money to solve problems for others is the professional ethic that Luo Zixi has always upheld. Since she accepted Bai Jingyan's benefits, she must do what she promised.
Today is the first day of the autumn harvest. Many people went home to rest after finishing their work. The educated youth were especially exhausted, and they fell asleep almost as soon as they hit the bed.
The female educated youth, however, were very clean and at least boiled some water to wipe themselves down.
However, with so many people living together, conflicts are bound to arise. After Zhang Qianwen's outburst today, everyone understands even more clearly that she is a drama queen.
Therefore, they all intentionally distanced themselves from her.
Seeing these people's behavior, Zhang Qianwen felt even more wronged.
Was she wrong? She was just trying to find someone to rely on in this harsh rural environment.
She had just gotten into another argument with another female educated youth because of the queue for washing up.
Back in Beijing, her friends always gave in to her. After all, Zhang Qianwen's family was well-off, and she often gave small favors to many of her female friends, so naturally, a group of people would flock around her.
She used to be the center of attention, but after coming here, no one showed her any special treatment.
There are people who are better off than her. Even if someone's family isn't well-off, there's no need for them to keep trying to curry favor with her, because everyone has more and better options.
Therefore, she naturally experienced a huge psychological letdown.
At this moment, Zhang Qianwen was on the verge of collapse when a gentle voice rang out:
“Zhang Zhiqing, don’t be sad. You don’t really have any bad intentions, but why do you have to pick on Luo Zixi?”
“I can tell you like Gu Yancheng quite a bit, but now Gu Yancheng’s heart isn’t with Luo Zixi anymore. What’s the point of you fighting me to the death like I am? Even if you win against Luo Zixi, Gu Yancheng still won’t see you.”
Hearing Shen Yuzhu say this, Zhang Qianwen was dumbfounded.
Didn't Gu Yancheng seem to really like Luo Zixi before? She could tell from his eyes.
After all, Luo Zixi was indeed exceptionally beautiful. Among this group of educated youth, she had the most outstanding looks and figure. Not to mention in this rural area, even in the capital, there were few girls who could rival Luo Zixi.
Therefore, in Zhang Qianwen's eyes, Luo Zixi was a smug vixen who seduced men everywhere and had no shame.
Hearing Shen Yuzhu say this, she was momentarily stunned.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Gu Yancheng is only ignoring me because he's bewitched by Luo Zixi."
Shen Yuzhu smiled when she heard this:
"You're blinded by appearances. Look, has Gu Yancheng tried to provoke Luo Zixi lately? She hasn't even exchanged more than a few words with him. Where does this 'liking' come from?"
"Now he likes Su Wanwan, and he's always by her side, doing whatever she wants. Haven't you seen that?"
"He might be being discreet, but in reality, he's already competing with his childhood sweetheart, Su Wanwan, for her affections!"
